La Luz Del Mundo

The community around La Luz Del Mundo

Within a few blocks of these doors, more than 5 in 10 households aren't sure there will be enough to eat. Nearly half of the children here are growing up below the poverty line, and more than a third describe their own health as fair or poor. That is two thousand neighbors — and some of them are already in these pews.

Pray for the tables that run short before the month does, and for this church's table to be long.
